Lyrics Modest Mouse

Modest Mouse

3rd Planet

Everything that keeps me together is falling apart

I've got this thing that I consider my only art

Of fucking people over.

My boss just quit the job

Says he goin' to find blind spots

And he'll do it.

The 3rd planet is sure that they're being watched

By an eye in the sky that can't be stopped.

When you get to the promise land

Your gonna shake that eyes hand.

Your heart felt good

It was drippin' pitch and made out of wood.

And your hands and knees

Felt cold and wet on the grass to me.

Outside naked, shiverin' looking blue,

From the cold sunlight that's reflected off the moon.

Baby cum angles fly around you

Reminding you we used to be three and not just two.

And that's how the world began.

And that's how the world will end.

A third planet had just been made

And we were swimming in the water,

Didn't know then was it a son was it a daughter.

When it occurred to me that the animals are swimming

Around in the water in the oceans in our bodies

And another had been found another ocean on the planet

Given that our blood is just like the Atlantic.

And how.

The universe is shaped exactly like the earth

If you go straight long enough you'll end up where you were.

Everything that keeps me toghther

Is falling apart I got this thing

I consider my only art and fucking people over
